Sun, sex, secrets and a very uncivil war

Kate is running away.  The hide-out she chooses is Menorca, the simple, stunning Mediterranean landscape she knew as a child.  But is anywhere truly simple?  A chance encounter with an old friend enmeshes her is a web of family and island secrets that have endured since the Spanish Civil War, warping the lives of three generations.  The last person to champion truth over reticence, she is nevertheless the catalyst for breaking a sixty year 'pact of forgetting'.  Until the only secret left is her own.

A gripping, beautiful and constantly surprising exploration of love and the things that can rise up to thwart it.
